Driving along a boring stretch of interstate in Illinois, you start experimenting using the average speed equation you learned i

n class. You drive 29 meters per second for 120s, then 35 meters per second for 300s. Then you entertain yourself by determining your average speed during those time intervals. What is your average speed for the experiment?

The average speed would be 33.29m/s.
The average speed equation is:

Average speed =  \frac{total distance}{total time}

First you will need to solve for the distance you traveled in each scenario. So we can solve this by getting the product of speed and the time traveled. 

Scenario 1:
Speed = 29m/s
Time = 120s
Distance = ?

Distance = (29m/s)(120s)
               = 3,480m

Scenario 2
Speed = 35m/s
Time = 300s
Distance = ? 

Distance = (35m/s)(300s)
               = 10,500m

Now that you have the distance of both, you can solve for your average speed. 

Average speed = \frac{total distance}{total time}
                                = \frac{3,480m+10,500m}{120s+300s}
                                = \frac{13,980m}{420s}
                                = 33.29m/s

What force must the deltoid muscle provide to keep the arm in this position?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Deltoid Force, F_{d} = \frac {r_{a}mgsin\alpha_{a}}{r_{d}sin\alpha_{d}}

Additional Information:

Some numerical information are missing from the question. However, I will derive the formula to calculate the force of the deltoid muscle. All you need to do is insert the necessary information and calculate.  

Explanation:

The deltoid muscle is the one keeping the hand arm in position. We have two torques that apply to the rotating of the arm.

1. The torque about the point in the shoulder for the deltoid muscle, T_{Deltoid}

2. The torque of the arm, T_{arm}  

Assuming the arm is just being stretched and there is no rotation going on,

                        T_{Deltoid} = 0

                       T_{arm} = 0

       ⇒           T_{Deltoid} = T_{arm}

                  r_{d}F_{d}sin\alpha_{d} = r_{a}F_{a}sin\alpha_{a}

Where,

r_{d} is radius of the deltoid

F_{d} is the force of the deltiod

\alpha_{d} is the angle of the deltiod

r_{a} is the radius of the arm

F_{a} is the force of the arm , F_{a} = mg  which is the mass of the arm and acceleration due to gravity

\alpha_{a} is the angle of the arm

The force of the deltoid muscle is,

                                 F_{d} = \frac {r_{a}F_{a}sin\alpha_{a}}{r_{d}sin\alpha_{d}}

but F_{a} = mg ,

                ∴            F_{d} = \frac {r_{a}mgsin\alpha_{a}}{r_{d}sin\alpha_{d}}
